I'm Alli and I'm overweight.
Now that we've gotten the essentials out of the way, you should know that I've tried a million and one things to get rid of the fat but nothing has worked. I have been reading up on low carb high fat diets and have finally come across something called keto / ketogenic diet. I'm not going to bore you with my mumbling of trying to explain the science behind it but do yourself a favour and read up on it if you don't already know what it's about.
I'm still learning so much and have gotten my hands on a book entitled BACON & BUTTER - THE ULTIMATE KETOGENIC DIET COOKBOOK (among other keto books and the Internet) and so far I've learnt enough just to get started but this blog is a journal of my attempts at living the keto life.I'm using MFP (My fitness pal) to figure everything out without guessing how much carbs I'm eating
I have Vida One installed in my PC even though I'm yet to figure out what to do with it
And I have this blog for all the other fun stuff
I'm thinking of starting with cycling to break into my fitness journey but not just yet - I have so much in the way of resources as far as fitness is concerned, I simply need to get used to this lifestyle enough to effectively incorporate fitness challenges. Sounds exciting, right?
Firstly, I want to break the transition to keto into short challenges - e.g. complete a 30 day challenge and another and another and so on... until I'm adapted
Join me on my journey and feel free to share your wisdom and ideas (every little bit helps)
